skydivermom 0 #6 November 8, 2006 I had 4 removed (bicuspids) at the same time about six months after I got braces. The pain meds only made me sick, so I had to suffer. I just took sleeping pills and stayed asleep as much as I could. I hope they let me keep my wisdom teeth after the braces come offMrs. WaltAppel All things work together for good to them that love God...Romans 8:28 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leapdog 0 #10 November 8, 2006 I got all four of my wisdom teeth pulled in boot camp. I got a local anestetic. The doc wasn't all that gentle but after seeing the teeth he pulled I knew why. They were all inpacted and he had to roll them out because the roots curled like a roller coaster. He said GD several times. Afterwards all I got was 800mg of motrin that lasted about three days and cotton to fill the holes. a doctors note to the Drill Instructors to leave me alone if I didn't yell. That went right overboard. I could only take the motrin when I was eating because the D.I. left me alone long enough to swallow them. I should have had them pulled when I was a teen before they broke the gum line when a civilian dentist could have knocked me out completely and given me good pain candy to take home.

Dumpster 0 #11 November 8, 2006 First extraction - Nitrous - I ws OK until the Novacaine wore off, then it sucked. Had 2 wisdom teeth pulled under a general anesthetic - Sucked the royal wet one after the meds wore off and for several days after that. Getting teeth pulled sucks no matter what.

Thankfully I was out cold when they yanked out all 4 of my wisdom teeth. The doc overdoing the general plus being very generous with the pain candy made about 4 days pass in a flash. My mom metered my meds for me, even said I was up and around, driving places. Scary thing was running out of the meds on Tuesday and having no memory of the previous 4 days . I couldn't tell you if it hurt because I honestly don't remember . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it was a lower wisdom tooth, careful drinking whiskey through a straw "dry socket" is killer pain..... "the clot" in socket is extremely important... (wtf...use a straw for sure) the extraction of the tooth from the socket violently disrupts the attachment with the nerves and blood vessels. The first stage is the formation of the clot- that protects the exposed bone for 6-7 days. Ya certainly need that exposed bone protected folks- we are talking killer pain when it is disturbed, dislodged.........before granulated tissue replaces it around the 7th day- then connective tissue replaces that- until trabeculae is formed in the socket (35 dayz later) The complete regeneration of bone at the site takes several months.
